A break from the flowers??

Hanging glass art that had been on display a year or so ago at the Missouri Botanical Garden. When an exhibit leaves the garden a few pieces always stays as a memento.

Any and all comments and critiques welcome!!

We have a chandaller like this at our art museum, except it is vibrantly colored glass. I like how the curls seem to be sprouting from some dark oblivion beyond.
